It should come as no surprise that Wednesday’s Capitol Riot is the most depicted event in political cartoons from this monumental week. Due to the sheer number of cartoons and their quality, I have culled very few from my subscription service and instead grouped them into more easily digestible sections.
This first group begins with the Capitol Riot, 26 cartoons on 3 pages.

Tough times for us all, but somehow — cartoons help!
Caricatures of the elements at play, often in humorous ways, somehow help me see a larger picture, even let me laugh. Even this last week….thank you, Olive!
